Yes. I’ve actually thought about posting about it here a few times.

Background: The authors, Helen Pluckrose and James Lindsay, authored a bunch of fake SJW papers to make a point about how out of control academia has become. Several of these were published. More were slated for publication. And yet, more were told to revise sections before publication. (My personal favorite of the published: “Human Reactions to Rape Culture and Queer Performativity at Urban Dog Parks in Portland, Oregon.”)

The Book: Pluckrose and Lindsay dive into the philosophy and history behind the SJW-madness westerners are living under. The sections on queer theory and intersectional feminism definitely apply to what LGB people are experiencing. They break down the rhetoric and call out the bullshit very well.

TL;DR: the book is good.
